Thats just how most of us who have old beautys feel. Its got little to do

for something you will have that feeling renewed.
Im so happy this perty machine has found a loving home, where she will be
loved and valued.

This same place does rentals ... basic machine for $15 a week.
Tomorrow, DH and I will go pick up one to tide me over, now that i
have the urge to sew.

Some how in all this, I have just remembered that my mother has a
treadle machine that she's never used. She uses it as a table, and has
a basket of flowers sitting on the treadle. We (us kids) are always
'putting our names on things' for when she passes . . . I hope my
Sistah does not already have her name on that! If she does, I may
trade her the 18 place setting of etched glass that will compliment
her China!
